A 20-something's adventures in and out of her tiny kitchen.

The 4-1-1.

For a few reasons…first and foremost, I think I did decently well on my exam! Wahoo! 🙂 That’s a huge weight off of my shoulders. I have another exam Friday, but that one I am much more comfortable with. One down…three to go!

Second, my pedometer freaking ROCKS. haha I love this thing. I get a strange thrill out of seeing how far I walk, how many steps I take, how many aerobic steps I am taking and how many calories I am burning. Today was a fairly “normal” day — walked to and from class twice. So I walked 5.41 miles today, took 13,184 steps, 12,127 aerobic steps, and burned 411 calories! Noiiice.

And third, I stepped on the scale this morning/afternoon — I have officially lost 40 pounds since my highest weight! 😀

So this afternoon, I took a nap and studied ’til class tonight. I didn’t eat much after my yogurt mess — I just wasn’t hungry. I tried to fuel myself up a little bit more in the afternoon with some sunflowerseeds and a little bit of the Trader Joe’s Mango Juice Smoothie.

I didn’t end up finishing the sunflower seeds, but I did drink the juice..though it took me two hours. haha

I was going to get some takeout tonight — based on the fact that I have no food in this house because I haven’t had the chance to go grocery shopping. However, when I saw my change on the scale — it inspired me to keep it decently healthy. So after my exam, I headed over to Whole Foods and grabbed some spicy tuna sushi and some Scharffen Berger dark chocolate. Yummm. I also ran into a friend from high school and college there. You think you’re in this big city — but it really is a small world.

A teeny bar! haha I had to hold it just to show how small it is.

A little treat for myself.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words about my exam!! They meant the world!
